Product Overview:
The ZX7000 is a 48-port AdvancedTCA® Hub board / PTMC Carrier, providing switched Gigabit Ethernet service for up to 14 node boards via the PICMG 3.0 Base Inteface and PICMG 3.1 Fabric Interface. The ZX7000 provides a tightly integrated modular switching platform that enables high-density solutions with the addition of onboard PMC/PTMC sites.
Linux-based OpenArchitect® 3 runs on the embedded Freescale MPC8270VR, providing a comprehensive package for the management of Layer 2 and Layer 3 packet switching. VLAN management and Layer 2-7 packet classification are also included with a user-friendly interface. OpenArchitect may be used with a variety of IP routing protocols.
Up to 12 switch egress ports are provided, depending on chassis/switch configuration, and one port is dedicated to the switch-to-switch connection in redundant configurations. For additional management connections, a USB, RS-232 serial, and three out-of-band 10/100 Ethernet ports are available for local configuration.
Two standards-based PMC/PTMC slots allow for significant expansion of possible applications. Each slot may host additional memory, I/O, processing or packet-processing capability.
Fault Tolerant Backplanes:
Two ZX7000 AdvancedTCA® switches can be used in a standard ATCA chassis to implement a fully redundant dual star network architecture over the base and fabric interface. Each payload slot has two Base Interface connections, one to each switch. With the OpenArchitect High Availability (HA) software suite, the chassis can respond and automatically correct any single point of failure.
